How to Fix What's Broken in Your Sexual Performance

Low sex drive isn't something men like to talk about, and it sure isn't something they like to experience. Unfortunately, erections aren't automatic when you're in you're 40's and 50's, and medical problems can cause erectile dysfunction when you're much younger. You can find out what the problem is and you can fix it.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

1. Sexual function needs the body and the mind. If you're depressed, your mind isn't involved, and if you take medication like Prozac, Paxil or Zoloft for depression, your libido can be lowered even more. More than 80% of people who take these drugs don't have orgasms. Your doctor should be able to switch your medication or dosage.
2. Belly fat contains a sex hormone called aromatase that changes testosterone into the female sex hormone estrogen. When men lose belly fat, testosterone levels go up and erectile function improves.
3. Smoking reduces blood flow in the penis, leading to erectile dysfunction. Stop smoking.
4. A study showed that 80% of men with sleep apnea had erectile dysfunction. See a sleep specialist if lack of sleep is your problem.
5. Emotional baggage from previous relationships may cause inability to perform. If the ex took half of everything you owned and took off with another guy, it's going to be hard to be close to another woman. Getting past what someone did to you in the past and learning to trust again may be what you need.
6. Women who are too confident in bed may intimidate some men, making them think to be real men they should be able to have sex at any time, in any place, with any woman. The promises of erectile dysfunction drugs to restore you to the performance level you had when you were in your 20s are not realistic. They probably won't work every time, and you may feel like you're the only one who failed on Viagra. YOU AREN'T! To achieve and maintain an erection, you need to be in an erotic state of mind.
7. Sexual dysfunction may be an early warning sign of a major medical problem such as diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. Ask your doctor to run necessary tests.
8. Make sure you don't have a vitamin deficiency that is causing erectile dysfunction. Vitamins A, B, C, E, magnesium and selenium are necessary for sexual function, as they produce testoterone and estrogen, energy, make sex organs stronger, makes sex hormones, and boost sex drive.

Tips & Warnings
